QUESTION 25 OF 45

How do you express your opinions on controversial topics such as abortion, euthanasia, physician assisted suicide, and cloning?

Questions like this can be tricky so be sure to note the wording of the question before you answer. The UMMS admissions interviewer wants to see how you navigate controversial topics. They are not asking for your opinion on these topics. Discuss how you remain tactful when controversial topics arise.

"When it comes to controversial topics such as abortion, euthanasia, physician-assisted suicide, and cloning, I will certainly give my opinions more freely in a social setting with friends versus a workplace setting or around patients. If at work, I would try to keep my personal opinion to myself or at the very least remain diplomatic by expressing how each side has their right to an opinion."
